I have a 2011 Ford Edge. It won't start without a jump. The battery has what appears to be two fuses and one appears to be blown. I can't find guidance online and struck out at auto parts stores.

Did you look on the Ford Edge Forum? I found several topics such as This

(2007 Edge owner, 238K miles).

If the battery has never been changed,you need to do that first.

if the car runs fine after the jump, it's the battery 99% of the time

Fuses on a battery? Is this something new? I've never seen fuses on a car battery.

Get a 'load test' done on your battery.

I think some of the auto parts place will do it for free.

Could be a weak battery.

Fuses?


If it's good after the jump, change your battery.

3 years of life is about average for a car battery.
